STARTING POINT
Government purchases in the European Union account for around 16 % of GDP, which is equal to 1,500 Billion Euro.
Overall capabilities of governments to handle key processes withtheir suppliers such as tenders, orders, delivery notes, catalogues, invoices, or payments is lagging behind other major industries.
The lack of common standards for electronic data exchange is considered an obstacle for companies to participate without barriers in public procurement processes.
Overall, governments are the largest buyer in the European Union, but they are lagging behind major industries in electronic data exchange with suppliers.

CHANGE AHEAD
The Manchester ministerial declaration of 24 November 2005 defines the target:
“By 2010 all public administrations across Europe will have the capability of carrying out 100 % of their procurement
electronically and at least 50 % of public procurement above the EU public procurement threshold will be carried out
electronically.”
EU member states have expressed a political will to change public procurement significantly.

CIP LARGE SCALE PILOT
The consortium has successfully finished contract negotiation with the European Commission. Project started in May 2008.
Pilots will be implemented, which demonstrate the interoperability of national solutions.
The proposed budget is 20 Mio. Euro. A part of the budget is reserved for countries joining later.
The project proposed has 3 main phases: Q2/2008 - Q2/2009: Requirements and designQ2/2009 - Q2/2010: Implementation Q2/2010 - Q2/2011: Pilots running
The PEPPOL consortium has submitted a proposal under the European Competitiveness and Innovation Programme (CIP) Call 2007.

E-Signature
AIMProviding cross European interoperability of electronic signatures, particular regarding the verification process.
3 steps to reach this goal:- Definition of a trust model for pan-european eProcurement processes
to overcome the legal obstacles- Specifying the way of signing eProcurement data to enable cross-
border eProcurement- Provision of solutions for verification of signatures for awarding
entities
AIMConsolidated electronic dossier recognised by EU Member Statesof all attestations needed for bids based on national registers,Basis: EU directives 2004/17 and 2004/18
Based on results of BRITE project (Business Register Interoperability Throughout Europe) initiated by European Business Register (EBR)
Concept will include existing national solutions, technical and legal requiremants
Virtual Company Dossier
AIMCreation and testing of a solution to manage eCatalogues used in the frame of public procurement procedures, both as part of a bid submitted by competing tenderers, and as a basis for issuing orders to economic operators.
Starting from the international standardization initiatives already in place at various levels, the solution will be based on the creation of building blocks.
E-Catalogue
AIMOrders and necessary documents (order confirmation, shippingdocuments, etc) shall be exchanged electronically throughoutEurope between public authorities and their suppliers
Based on NES/UBL standard:- basic order - basic procurement- advanced procurement
E-Ordering
AIMInvoices and other transactions (e.g. approval and disapprovalof invoices) shall be exchanged electronically throughout Europe based on NES/UBL standard
The following NES/UBL profils shall be used: - basic billing- basic billing with dispute- basic invoice- customs invoice
E-Invoicing
AIMLinking of national infrastructures
- e.g. FinanzOnline as gateway, physical connection- basic services for data exchange (DataBox)- security, authentification, authorisation- web interface for SMEs
Infrastructure
AIMProject administration and national contact point for EU projectmanagement
ACTIVITIES- Participation in consortium meetings- EU reporting- Budget administration
Project administration
AIMAwareness and consensus building as well as dissemination of resultsout of PEPPOL project
ACTIVITIES- Preparing and servicing of communication plan- Creating of presentation material and project website- Presentations and workshops on international conferences- Information campaign- Reference group supervision- Press releases, newsletters, interviews
Awareness & Dissemination

ACTION REQUIRED
Governments and their suppliers should adjust their business processes and modify their IT-systems.
Standard software suppliers should modify their software and adhere to common standards for the public sector in the EU.
Governments may have to adopt new laws:- All electronic processes should be as easy as possible and legal barriers need to be removed.
- It should be mandatory to transact with government only electronically.
Governments, suppliers and software companies have to take action now to avoid being left behind.
21
PARTICIPATE NOW
Governments, which are not yet consortium members are invited to participate in a reference group to get more information and join the consortium later. A budget has been reserved for those countries.
The project is interested in the views of the software industry.software suppliers are invited to participate in a technical advisory group to get all the information, how to connect to thePEPPOL infrastructure and provide their input to the design of the specifications.
Governments and software companies are invited to participate now.
22
COORDINATION
Coordination is considered very important to avoid duplication of efforts and share experiences. For each initiative or project relevant to the PEPPOL project a liaison manager will be appointed and other initiatives and projects are invited to do the same.
The project is inviting all other initiatives relevant to public e-Procurement to link with PEPPOL.
